Submitted by webmaster on 14 January 2010 - 5:25pm
Former Australian coach Rod Macqueen has come out of retirement to be the new Head Coach of the Melbourne Rebels in 2011's Super 15. Macqueen signed a three-year contract with new Chief Executive Brian Waldron on Wednesday, saying he had been reinvigorated by the potential he saw in the new franchise.
Macqueen appointed Damien Hill as the team’s assistant coach. Hill will depart his post as Head Coach at the Sydney University Rugby Club to take up the role. Hill has led the Sydney club to the last three premierships in Sydney’s Shute Shield, widely recognised as Australia’s leading first grade rugby union competition.
Details of these appointments and a short bio of Rod Macqueen can be seen in the attached press releases.

Submitted by webmaster on 18 December 2009 - 10:02pmNews of the Australian Schoolboys trip to the UK has special meaning for the Harlequins since Angus Hamilton and Jack DeGuingand are representing Australia (and the Quins). Match reports and some of the newsletters have been sent back together with a large number of photos taken by Carl Peterson, father of the 6' 9" lock from Sydney who was unfortunately injured and returned to Australia before the end of the trip. Carl returned with him so the quantum of photos dried up for the later matches.
